Hey, i made this platformer. Its meant to convey the idea that often the actions required to achieve a given goal are more rewarding than the goal itself. For example, in the case of a computer game the playing and improving can be more fun than the satisfaction of having finished the game. Hence 'the journey is the destination'. I think its an interesting take on the heros journey, in a classic, retro styled platformer. I hope you enjoy it!

Not my cup of tea

I am usually not the one to give low scores but this game almost asks for it.
I really do not mean to insult you but for my taste the difficulty level is insane: The danger of the hazards compared to the punishment (one false move --> losing a life worth 20 hard to get coins and bringing you near complete game end by a giant leap). The music was... ok, not really bad but nothing groundbreaking. I have seen this "Pixel style" this kind of unfinished looking and minimalistic graphics before but it was in a game that made this on purpose trying to give you the feeling of being behind the scences of games with graphic greatness. In this case although it seemed just like laziness. I can´t really give you less than 4/2 as I know that there is still going quite some programming and testing - a lot in fact- in these kind of games.

good game

the only thing i would say is dont include the slippery ness or the delay movement on a game where it comes down to just a pixel like it does in this game, ya know? have one touch of the key move the guy just a touch, not jump across the little block.

Meh...

The controls are awful; how can you jump into a very tiny block if you start sliding just when you touch it?

Plain graphics...VERY plain graphics,I wouldn't complain about that if the game wasn't so simple.It's not a good RPG with pixel graphics,it's a platformer game,and it's one that doesn't offer anything new at all.
